Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, gentlemen, for joining us today. Since the beginning of our cross-country tour, we've seen how valuable and important it is to hear from people at every stop along the way. Of course, that applies to Halifax.
Mr. Cavanaugh, our examination of Canada Post has to take two different philosophies into account. On the one hand, we're dealing with a corporation that's trying to turn a profit. On the other hand, even though we support its profitability, if that doesn't happen, the organization could potentially be subsidized since it is a crown corporation.
The five-point plan addresses attrition and the elimination of home mail delivery. You aren't the only ones to tell us that Canada Post is still profitable. A number of local and national unions have told us the same thing. The elimination of home mail delivery resulted in job losses and cost savings. The price of stamps also went up.
Do you have any figures, documentation, or statistics to show that the corporation would have continued to be profitable had it not implemented the first phase of its five-point plan?
